Beware of the wife who, as she kisses
you good-by, slips bit of paper into
your pocket, saying:
"There's a list of a few little things I'd
like you to get on your way to the train.

Woman'S Devotion.

a Despatch from Nashville, Tenn,
says:
eighteen years ago the doors Of the
state prison closed upon Frank Riddle, Of
Maury county, who had been sentenced
60 life Imprisonment tor numbering a
German peddter. There were doubts as
to the guilt eff Riddle, who refusing to
rcknowiedg the crime and aooept term
of fifteen years, insisted upon a plea Of
rot guilty. The trial resulted in his con-
viction, and the defendant appealed to
to the Supreme court, which granted a
new hearing. A second verdict against
Riddle was rendered and he was sent to
the peniteatiary. Year after year passed.
One after another of the life convicts
died, and Riddle almost abandoned hope
OF obtaining his freedom
While Governor Taylor was seated in
his office yesterday 2 woman walked into
the apartment and presented to the Gov
error petition for executive clemency,
signed oy the iessees and every officer OF
the prison, who stated that &iddle's long
incarceration had served the ends Of
5ustlce. Accompanying the petition wss
a letter written by the woman who bore it.
After the governor had read the doou-
ment the lady rose, and, addressing hina,
said:
''GeEernor Taylor, when that man was
accused of murder I was engaged to be
married to him. did not believe faim
guilty and did not goreak the engagement
Duriag the two or three years thr$ the
trial was pending still 5elieved ia him.
During the eighteen years of his confne-
meEtI stuck to hisa. His parents have
died. His brothers and sisters are all
dead except q sister who lives out west.
The people who were interested in the
case then have forgotten him. I
am the only friend he has in the world.
Ny life has been wrapped up in HIM,
[ believe in him and dave loved him
through all these long, weary years, and /
waEt you to pardon him. do not ask
you to think him an innocent man, but
for the sake of two lives that may yet be
happy [ implore you to set him free"
Without waiting to hear the governors
decision she arose and left the office and
the eapitol.
When the governor had cleared his eyes
of tears he said to Bishop Cranberry:
'SUeh devotion and constancy have new
er seen, and whatever Riddle may have de-
served, it does look as if that woman
ought to have chance at happiness"

The annual report of Professor Baird.
of the Smithsonian Institution, discloses
the fact that the once numerous and
characteristic buffalo race has practi-
cally ceased to exist in the United States
SO rapid has been the rate of destruction
in the last few years that it is now al
most impossible, to procure specimens
of this interesting class of animals for
preservation in the National Museum of
Washington. Realizing the importance
of securing such specimens, Professor
Baird sent an expedition to the far West
last summer for that purpose; and al
though number of skeletons and skulls
were found on the plains. it was with
great difficulty that one buffalo bull
was killed. There are supposed TO
be still few small and rambling herds
in Northern Dakota, well up toward the
British possessions: but with this uniru-
portant exception, the story of the
buffalo has reached its conclusion. and
the vast domain over which he once
roamed oy millions is now entirely shorn
of his familiar and typical presence.

A boy about sixteen years old recently

Male Quartets at Funerals.

"a very happy conceit," says the New
York Times, sis the organization of a
quartet of male voices for services at fun
erals. Upon reading an obituary notice
one of their number calls upon the fam
lily and suggests an engagement. At a
recent evening service 'Shall We Know
Each Other There?" CANCELS Ever Bright
and Fair" 'Nearer My God to Thee" and
"Jesus Lover of Ny Soul" were sung by
these professionals with impressive effect,
the choristers standing at the head of the
main hall stairway, while the friends were
assembled in the parlor and the family
gathered on the floor next above. When
required the singers go to the grave.
The pay is generally left to the consider
alton of the family, or else referred to
